What were the issues with the Rebel?

Where to begin?
The pump pivot wears very quickly and seems to be made of hard chewing gum.
The blow off valve kicks in at around 8ftlbs and can't be adjusted easily, you can either have 8 or 16 ftlbs.
It's not accurate, there are reports of the barrel not being butted up to the loading port and pellets clipping the barrel on loading. On the two I tried I couldn't get a group at 25yds and I mean less than 6".
The plastic breech is made of much softer plastic than the original Innova and the scope moves in relation to the barrel.

Save your money and go for an original Innova.

I had a rebel, bad accuracy was due to burrs around the barrel transfer port, managed to file them away by taking bolt probe out and used a thin jewellers file. good accuracy up to 30 yards.to check for transfer port burrs put a pellet in and close the bolt. open bolt and remove bolt, use a rod to shove the pellet out you'll see damage to the head of the pellet if that's the problem . imo.good stock handy silencer end block but not a patch on the innova

Hi, I have also sourced a sharp innova, but mine seems to have very poor grouping. Had one back in the day which was amazing, but this one is poor. What pellets work well in them? (.22) Any advice apreciated.
Cheers
